ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides a magnetic tape system which experiences a reduced, if not eliminated, amount of slippage between the drive roller of the tape drive system and the driven roller of the magnetic tape cartridge. The present invention employs a hard plastic driven roller having a slightly enlarged diameter portion to which an elastomeric, rubber-like material is bonded. The elastomeric material has the form of an annular sleeve or ring which is coextensive with a slightly enlarged diameter portion of the driven roller to provide a reduced slippage annular contact surface for contacting a portion of a rubber outer sleeve positioned on the capstan, or drive roller, of a conventional magnetic tape drive.
